that left me thinking it was some sort of particularly retarded AI
Let's play another round of is it AI or is it autism
AI's tell you what they've been trained to tell you
Autists tell you what they've deduced
It may be that only an autist can discern the two, it takes one to know one etc, and is therefore autism is a super-power in a world overrun with AIs

The trained-to-tell vs deduced part does ring a bell for me
I'm paticularly thinking of A-logging here. A-logs behave kind of like AI but by your metric they fall clearly on the not AI side. Interesting.

šŸ¤£permission to post this on nostr, sir?!
I'd like a bonus round of Is it autism or is it just an asshole?.
reply
I've seen a lot of comment on here and on Twitter that just post "cool!" or "i love <topic>" etc. Those are 100% bots. Boring.
I think many very emotional discussions deep down in comment chains are mild cases of autism. Or normal people that havent touched grass in a while. 0% bots. Boring.
Interesting are cases where the account replies with the typical chatGPT-style essays. They can sound kinda human. 50%bots 50%autists. Interesting.

I agree, but there's also the possibility that a bot has been trained on X exchanges, making it difficult to distinguish from a normal human asshole or an autist.
I downzap obvious bots, but I don't mute them. Muting is for noisy assholes.

I held this position for a long time. On SN I mute nobody.
But Twitter is utterly unusable now and it only takes muting two dozen bots to improve the timeline a lot.

On SN I mute nobody.
I hope SN remains usable in that mode for you.
